Answer:

Tom has to sit more towards the middle (fulcrum) while Marcie sits on the edge of the seesaw.

Explanation:

Since Tom is heavier than Marcie, he has to sit towards the middle of the seesaw while Marcie sits on the edge. This is what is going to help to distribute both weights on the seesaw.

If they both sat on the edges of the seesaw, Tom's weight is going to hit the ground fast and this will end up causing Marcie to suspend in the air, since Marcie does not have enough body weight required to match Tom's own in order for the see saw to move uniformly, up and down.

Answers to Questions

1.Updated May 05, 2019. Miranda v. Arizona was a significant Supreme Court case that ruled that a defendant's statements to authorities are inadmissible in court unless the defendant has been informed of their right to have an attorney present during questioning and an understanding that anything they say will be held against them.

2.The Miranda warning, which also can be referred to as a person's Miranda rights, is a right to silence warning given by police in the United States to criminal suspects in police custody (or in a custodial interrogation) before they are interrogated to preserve the admissibility of their statements against them in criminal proceedings.
